i am really waiting to see some bigger tank battles in a huge field, so i can put my av skills to proper use. I use more the railgun so i need more railgun sniping if i want to kill something without being instantly killed. |

I was on a 2 on 7 tank fight last week on ashlands. Blew up 3 before the other five (actually it was just one that got a jump on me first but he was spearheading the 5) took me out. By end of the match we blew up all the tanks. |

considering that whenever the vehicles reach a point in which they are actually worth using the playerbase throws a fit until they get nerfed back down to being a liability, I'm going to suggest you don't hold your breath waiting for huge tank battles. |

This. The reason that you don't see a dozen tanks in every match is because they cost a lot of money (good tanks drain you 550K, Good tanks in the 550-850K range, and Excellent tanks drain you upwards of 1.8 mil).
On that note, if tanks were more sustainable (that is, all that crap you need for a good tank is less expensive), I'd shudder to imagine how many tanks people would bring onto the field. It would be horrible for infantry who hadn't specced into AV. |

Yeah, that's definitely the other half of the equation in regards to the basic problem with vehicles.
A year ago CCP was telling us we should expect at least 32vs32 by launch, and that they were hoping for 64vs64. |

seems like a lie. 2 on 7 then 5+3 =8. next time you tell it it will be 10 |

that brings up another question: when are the districts going to be larger cause if u look the redzone when looking at the map u can see a greater territory that could be used, and increasing the players amount without super lag is also important in a mmofps. |

I doubt the districts can realistically get much bigger on the PS3. Maybe if they eventually port the game to PS4 and give it it's own play modes. |

Youll see them when tank drivers grow some balls and actually get out there in the field instead of running for the hills after seeing one swarm |

They wouldn't stop calling them down. also the first one I blew up was called down first before the rest of them started landing. They peaked at 7 they called in like... 10 total. |

Tanks are called by players. So it depends on players to make a battle "Epic Tank Battle". But how will you hack objectives while all are driving their tanks?  Somebody will have to risk being sniped from red HAV... |

It's funny cause it's true!!!
It's... not funny though.

MAG. That's all. If they could do it (that's all it really ended up being right, a tech demo?) so can CCP.
I'm not holding my breath, but larger maps are certainly possible on PS3... especially if they tone back the graphics.
Seriously, who cares about graphics? As long as they aren't atrocious (stick figures) I'm MUCH more worried about gameplay.
I still play MoO, Civ2 and MoM though, so perhaps I'm not the best judge. I just can't bring myself to care about graphics though, as long as they're acceptable. Chromosome was fine for me. The "improvements" seem to have caused more problems than they were worth. I mean... there's nothing mind-blowing going on, so who cares?
I guess I'm a minority though. = /

I cannot believe you know anything about piloting HAV's. I don't run often, but I don't lose many tanks either. I'd imagine you'd like it better if I just got out and waited for you to finish off my tank?
I'd imagine Dropship pilots are castrated as well?

when a single swarm doesn't take down half of our shield then well come out, until then you have to work for our destruction. |

If there are larger maps that have open fields and buildings and there are game modes where you can make a lot money, then we will see huge vehicle fights. But this probably wont happen this year. |

If teams would work together using transfers and reps from vehicle to vehicle then HAVs would be more viable but as it is now no one uses transfers and reps. I was using lav with a shield transfer and it helped, I bet a transfer from HAV to HAV would do much better. Work as a team. 6 person squads can pilot at least two HAVs at once. One glass cannon and the other is a logi. |
